Mostly irrelevant ramblings about music, comic books and other aspects of pop culture with the occasional political rant from an anti-statist perspective.

Rancid: DoTM

I got the idea of doing this DoTM after listening to the band's album And Out Come the Wolves. Last night, Mandy and I made a stop at Guestroom Records in Oklahoma City during which she asked me to purchase her a copy of this album on vinyl. After which, I realized that I have never done one of these DoTM things for them. So here it is.

Rancid is a punk rock band that started in 1991 in Berkeley, California from the ashes of the classic ska-punk band Operation Ivy.
